Bio Sketch
Fay Aoyagi （青柳飛）was born in Tokyo and immigrated to the U.S. in 1982. She is currently a member of Haiku Society of America and Haiku Poets of Northern California. She serves as an associate editor of The Heron's Nest. She also writes in Japanese and belongs to two Japanese haiku groups; Ten'I (天為) and "Aki"（秋), and she is a member of Haijin Kyokai (俳人協会).
L1 sets the scene and mood while unexpected yet thematically significant and visually and emotionally evocative L3 conveys a strong sense of be/longing.
ReplyDeleteAnd my haiku below could be read as a sequel/response to Fay's:
first homecoming
I refashion myself
between flights
